MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 2221
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0151 PM CST FRI NOV 08 2024
AREAS AFFECTED...PARTS OF EASTERN CO INTO EXTREME NORTHEAST NM AND
THE WESTERN OK PANHANDLE
CONCERNING...HEAVY SNOW
VALID 081951Z - 090015Z
SUMMARY...OCCASIONAL SNOW RATES OF 1+ INCH PER HOUR WILL BE POSSIBLE
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
DISCUSSION...THE DEEP MID/UPPER-LEVEL CYCLONE OVER NM THAT IS
SUPPORTING THE ONGOING LONG-DURATION SNOW EVENT IS CURRENTLY IN THE
PROCESS OF PIVOTING NORTH-NORTHEASTWARD, WITH A WEAK BUT DEEPENING
SURFACE LOW MOVING NORTHWARD NEAR THE OK/TX PANHANDLE BORDER, WHERE
2-HOUR PRESSURE FALLS OF 2-3 MB HAVE BEEN NOTED. SOME CONTINUED
DEEPENING OF THIS SYSTEM IS POSSIBLE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON, WHICH
WILL MAINTAIN FAVORABLE DEEP ASCENT ACROSS EASTERN CO AND VICINITY.
PERSISTENT LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND ASCENT ATTENDANT TO THE
CYCLONE COULD LEAD TO SOME INCREASE IN SNOW RATES THIS AFTERNOON
ACROSS PARTS OF EASTERN CO, AS PRECIPITATION PIVOTS NORTHWESTWARD TO
THE NORTH OF THE LOW. WHILE LOW-LEVEL TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN
RATHER MARGINAL, PRECIPITATION MAY BECOME HEAVY ENOUGH TO SUPPORT
OCCASIONAL SNOW RATES OF 1+ INCHES PER HOUR THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
